Featured artist: H. Master Ice - H. Master Ice: Rising Quickly
Below is a short interview with the upcoming underground artist H. Master Ice.
How did you decide to become an artist?
H. Master Ice: H. Master Ice organically stated at the advice of a teacher. In second grade, I was temperamental because of my home situation. My teacher told me to write down how and what I feel instead of outbursting at my peers and classmates. She optioned me with the choice to read this aloud or throw it away after I wrote and vented. Consequently, I started reciting rhymes to my class in second grade. I did not start start rapping again until I was sixteen, and haven’t stopped since.
I advise artists to created from a place that is yours alone. Nobody has had your exact experience so each artist has had a unique perception they can express through art.
What about concerts? Do you play live?
Yes, mostly, if I perform, I throw pretty big shows and incorporate a lot of global talent in order to give them all a chance to perform. There are not any venues to perform in my city, so I make my own breaks!
Best punchline you ever wrote?
I could pick lines out of about any song I have. The BEST line would certainly be at the discretion of the listener. I pick, today, ”The combination: rebuild and restoration. If you’re sick of your life, laughter’s a medication.” From H. Master Ice’s, -A Days Bliss-
What are you currently working on? Did you release something in the past?
I have released probably ovber 100 songs, mostly in-home recordings online and physically in my state. Now I am working on a very special piece that incorporates a number of genres including my specialty, rap. It’s tentatively titled, People I Love.
Last but not least: Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
I’m aware of the cons such as low residuals from album sells and radio play. I would still sign a record deal because the productions and marketing tools/resources that I do not have, they do. To present myself to a mass market, H. Master Icewill most likely be very successful. I think many of my songs are quality pieces that if presented to the mass market of music consumers, many would buy it because it’s purely authentic,skillful and full of relatable contents.
Any last words?
I represent talent, ambition and pure hope. I can’t limit that to a city or a group of people. I do edify and strongly support people that are geographically disadvantaged and economically disadvantaged. I would like to make it out to show them that it is possible to make it with your talent regardless of where you are.
